Union wage request for information?

How is it possible for the average annual earnings of nonunionized workers to exceed those of unionized workers even though unionized workers' hourly wages are more than $2 sophisticated?


Answers: Possibly because of limited overtime to Union workers. ie the contract say that workers can only work every other weekend or some other such rule. Non-union may work a great deal more hours during the year.

There could also be some problems with background gathering. ie, non-hourly workers' salary being included surrounded by the annual income calculations, etc.
Possibly because alliance workers have to settle dues.
